Ho Chi Minh City - VinaLand Limited, the AIM-quoted investment vehicle established to target strategic segments within Vietnam's emerging real estate market, announces that it has divested its entire stake in Project Phu Hoi City, located in Dong Nai province, Vietnam (the "Project"). The Project, acquired by VNL in 2007, is an 84-hectare parcel of land and has received approval for a future residential-township development.

VNL has disposed of its entire stake in the Project at a total valuation 2.0% above the 30 September 2017 unaudited net asset value and 3.3% above the unaudited net asset value at the time of VNL's extraordinary meeting in November 2016, both figures include adjustments for additional investments up to the date of exit. This transaction has resulted in net proceeds of USD15.8 million which at the time of this announcement have been received in full.
